Are You Feelin’ It?

Black Lace Shorts, capri leggings with shorts, casual outfit, J.Crew Painter's Tee, Metallic sneakers, Navy and white stripes, Reort Slip ons, Walmart

I am feeling the sun and it feels so good! Even though this day was not what I would classify as hot, it still felt amazing. So what do you think about my latest find? These adorable lace shorts… Walmart… Can you believe it? I bought them to try, because you never know. I got them in ivory and black. These are juniors so I bought an 11-12. And I have to say I love them! I couldn’t wait to wear them so I wore my capri leggings (also seen here) under them. The black and navy stripe inspiration came from this J.Crew Catalog pic. The J.Crew painter’s tee (also seen here and here, similar to buy here) along with Report metallic slides (again) and my new Target watch created another sporty and comfortable outfit that is not “active wear”.

Aviators, Baseball Jersey, Big Buddah Tote, Casual, casual outfit, Converse All Stars, Denim Leggings, Gap, Hot Pink Bag, Men's baseball Jersey, Pink Tote, Ray-Ban, Silver Boyfriend Watch, stealing from his closet, Target Boyfriend Watch Silver, White All Stars

Yes, yes it is. M was just looking over my shoulder as I was editing some photos and said… “Is that my shirt?”, “Looks better on you then it does on me!”. Love him. Anyway, it’s baseball season and I saw an outfit on another blog that I stalk and thought about my hubby’s closet. Great idea! Along with my GAP Skinny Denim Leggings (seen here and here), Converse All Stars (see this post for my tip on keeping them looking whiter longer) and my new bag for spring/summer this Big Buddah bag (TJ Maxx) in a glorious Hot Pink! Also, I did some watch shopping at my favorite spot, Target! I get the best boyfriend watches there for $10 to $20. And extra $10 gets them sized properly for my unusually small wrists. And so my collection grows. This one (similar here) reminds me of the TAG I bought M for our first anniversary. The extra chunkiness of the watch matches the oversized baseball jersey perfectly!

So this is spring? I’m sure many of my friends are dressing in adorable spring clothes. We in the northeast are still battling the chill (understatement). So today, a simple outfit. My standby combo of camo and stripes. Gap skinnies (seen here and here) are as neutral as blue jeans. My shirt is J.Crew (seen here) and the waffle knit wrap is an old target purchase that I haven’t worn in a while, but I saw this blogger wearing one similar and it inspired me to dig it out. Boots are Arturo Chang (seen here and here). Knit hat is the navy version of this one. I’m adding a little Navy to everything lately. Just love it! Coat is Nine West — Bought it at Tuesday Morning, of all places, or something like $25.00 2 years ago. My old olive coat was on it’s last legs when I ran across it. Fur collar is removable. These new sunglasses are quickly becoming a staple! And red lips… what do you think?

ASOS blanket scarf in check, Asos Oversized Blanket Scarf, Aviators, Blanket Scarf, Cable knit Hat, casual outfit, Gap, Green, Green and Navy, Hunter Original Tall Boots, Jean Leggings, Plaid, Ray-Ban, St. Patrick's Day Outfit, Target c9 fleece

St Patrick’s Day Parade! So many great memories of going when I was in my 20’s (for obvious reasons) and when the weather is agreeable, we’ve taken the kids.

This sweater is one from the great sweater buy at Marshall’s of 2015 (other sweaters are here, here and here). I love the navy and green combo and have worn it many times since I bought it. Plaid seemed appropriate for the day’s festivities so I’m once again wearing my fav blanket scarf from ASOS (also seen here). Jeans are Leggings from GAP (seen here and here). The jacket is NEW! I found it on clearance at Target last week. Love it! It’s fleece with nylon quilting. Of course, now I can’t find it on their website, but it was $22 (similar here). A “cannot pass up this deal” purchase (even hubby agreed with me on this one). Boots are Hunter Original Tall in Green. If you are thinking of getting a pair — now is the time. When all this snow melts it is going to be one sloppy baseball/softball season! The knit hat is cable knit, black with silver threads and who can resist a pom-pom on top? I bought it at our local supermarket (go figure) in their seasonal section — clearance of course, $5.00. So great I bought 5 of them (different colors) and G and I share. 🙂

American Eagle, Brown Boots, Buffalo, casual outfit, Gap, Lace Layering, legging Jeans, MantraBands, Marsala Sweater, Parka, sweater

One of the great things about living in Buffalo is that there are massive sales on winter clothing long before winter is over! I just bought a boatload of clearance sweaters from Marshall’s this week. This is one of them. This marsala high-low cropped sweater is American Eagle. You know I love my scalloped edge tank (seen here and here with the same jeans), and it is highlighted perfectly by the cropped front of this sweater. And if you read my post from yesterday, you saw that I am dreaming of a higher boot…then I remembered today, I think I have a pair! They are a chocolate brown and oh so much higher than what I am now used to, but mission accomplished. Once again, my Basement Department Store is always open! They are so very old, I couldn’t even tell you when I got them.

Black Corduroys, casual outfit, Flannel Shirt, Lands' End, Over the Knee Suede Boots, Stewart Plaid

How was your Holiday? Mine was exhausting! As seen by my face in the pictures… should have worn sunglasses. I am trying harder to post more outfits so please focus on the outfit…not the overtired looking gal wearing the outfit. I’ve got a couple more to share from the last week of celebrations but today’s is casual for taking the kids bowling with some friends. I love my new plaid shirt. It’s in the Stewart Plaid I’ve been drooling over since the Lands End catalog came out. Black cords/Converse (Target), Boots, over the knee Suede/Chinese Laundry, Bag/Steve Madden, Denim Jacket/H&M (sooooo old), Scarf/? but have you noticed that scarves are being worn long like this now? Take note.

Don’t you just love it?

casual outfit, distressed jeans, oversized menswear shirt

There have been so many outfits in the last 2 weeks that I’ve wanted to post but didn’t have time to photograph. So I took a quick snapshot of this one as I was on my way to the school Book Fair. Apparently too quick. Argh! So blurry…but I have to start posting some of these outfits!

Anyway, a classic Corinna re-mix. I love these jeans (seen here) and oversized shirt this season (seen here and here), so why not put them together? Paired with an old Fossil belt (I love this belt because it adds a little bit of color while still being neutral. I can wear it with all my staple colors, red, orange, navy plus the neutrals of black brown, grey and beige) and flats from Target (also old) and out the door I go!
